Unsupported FSALs
by Frank Filz
Community,
We have a number of FSALs in Ganesha that have no effective support, I'd
like to understand who might still be relying on them and if there is anyone
who might step up to support them, or whether we can consider removing some
on an expedited timeline (normally we declare a FSAL is deprecated in one
release, and then remove it in the next). Note that with the magic of git,
deleted FSALs could easily be resurrected (though they might not have been
updated to match API changes). The risk of not removing unsupported code is
first that folks will use code with little or no support and open github
issues that cannot effectively be addressed, and that unsupported code may
not be properly updated as API changes are made.
The following FSALs are suspect:
src/FSAL/FSAL_VFS/xfs - this is marginally supported, but could be replaced
with plain FSAL_VFS
src/FSAL/FSAL_VFS - there is also a Lustre FSAL that is built from this
src/FSAL/FSAL_GLUSTER
src/FSAL/FSAL_LIZARDFS
src/FSAL/FSAL_PROXY_V3
src/FSAL/FSAL_PROXY_V4
src/FSAL/FSAL_KVSFS
src/FSAL/FSAL_SAUNAFS
Thank for your thoughts

Wonderful, I will start looking into the issues. I have already added the meeting invites to my calendar. Though it is bit out of my working hours, I hope to join the call regularly.

That is great. I just relabled all the FSAL_GLUSTER github issues that were labeled as UNSUPPORTED FSAL as GLUSTER.
If you could start taking a look at them, that would be a big help.
We also invite you to join our weekly community call, Tuesday’s 7:00 AM Pacific Time. If you’d like me to add you to the calendar invite, I will do so, but here’s the call details:

Hi Frank,
We heavily rely on Gluster FSAL for our archive product. We have two active developers working on the project. While we mostly mastered the gluster project, we are confident that we can support the Gluster FSAL with the help of community. Since NFS-Ganesha is such an important part of our project, we will definitely want to do everything to keep Gluster FSAL moving with Ganesha community.
Let us know how we can take it forward.

Hi Frank,
I’m writing as a member of the SaunaFS <https://github.com/leil-io/saunafs> community to confirm that we rely on the SaunaFS FSAL for our filesystem.
However, we have encountered issues preventing us from migrating to the latest stable v6.5, as our test suite for Ganesha currently passes only for v4.4 but not for v6.5 (21 / 23 pass successfully, 2 tests fail).
In the coming days, I plan to update our GitHub Actions pipeline to run our test suite for Ganesha v6.5, making the results available to the Ganesha community.
As part of the SaunaFS community, we are committed to support SaunaFS FSAL and keep it up to date with the latest API changes.
From our team, we would like to contribute to ensure FSAL_SAUNAFS remains supported and compatible with the latest Ganesha versions.
Best regards,
Rubén
